Hype!!!

Detrocboi booklet #2: Neighbourhood Of Infinity.

This time it won't be short comics but a whole story and some illustrations, hopefully out by the end of the year.

By the way, sorry for the prolonged absence of new posts on here, between the month in London and the load of work I got when I came back I really haven't the time to write much.

Hey!

I'm back from London, got back a little earlier than expected because I've a lot to do in here for the next couple of months.
I'll be working on new comics, one for a zine, one for a magazine and another one will be presented at an exhibition in September and will then appear on Detrocboi Booklet #2.
London was amazing, I had a great time, met new friends and talked with publishers, a really positive experience.

Expect some more updates, sketchbook scans and anything else in the coming days, right now I'm working on a schedule for all the things I gotta make. Talk soon.

Hey, sorry for the prolonged absence of updates.
I'm really busy with commission work and other stuff lately, so I really haven't much time to draw anything else. I should be this busy for two more weeks, then I hope I'll be able to resume drawing and everything else.
 In the meantime you can check my comics in the Detrocboi booklet and in the brand new Lodaçal Comix 5.


Talk soon.

So

Hey everybody, once again I'm really busy working on new illustrations and comics and got almost no time to update blogs and such.
I just finished a storyboard for a new short comic, I'm also writing a longer story and working on a couple of new illustrations.
In other news, Detrocboi booklets will be up for sale soon! Stay tuned for bigger updates, ciao!

Now

Hello, I just finished drawing Heroism Potion.
It still needs all the work of shading, lightning and the dialogues are still to be added, it should take a couple of days, I hope it's all done before Monday.
After that I'll make some illustration and in the meanwhile I'll be shaping up some new stories, I'm thinking about making a longer one, with a character I sketched up some days ago and with other crazy characters.

I can't show you anything about that, but I may be uploading some character sketches in the following days.

A quick update.
I'm finishing page three of the new comic, called Heroism Potion, it's going to be six pages in black and white, so far I'm really happy with how it's coming along.
The next pages have a one-on-one fight scene so they're a little tougher than the first ones, lots of dynamism and rubble floating around.
I'll post some sneak peeks soon.

Complete!

Vampire Hexagons is finished, it took me a couple of days longer than I expected, but it's ok, it just needs some editing and it's ready.
I'm taking a few days to draft some ideas, complete some line drawings, make a decent storyboard for the next comic and then start with it.
More news coming soon, expect one for tomorrow, ciao!

Back From Wherever I Was...

Hello,
I've been in a full-immersion week of comic colouring, listening to industrial music records from the 80's and struggling with splitting headaches and black outs.
Vampire Hexagons is almost done, I had to slow down a little, but I got back to a good pace the last few days so I'm sure it will be done by Monday or Tuesday at last.
Right after that I'm jumping head first in the new comic, which will be in black and white and will have big brawls and transforming heroines and monsters.
I also made some illustrations' sketches and made some other drawings, there'll be more to see in the next days.

Talk soon, ciao!

Hello, sorry for the lack of updates, I'm extra-busy working on Vampire Hexagons, I'm expecting to complete it early next week and start right away with another one.
I'm also working on some illustrations and other things.

I got some books  and I wanted to make a post about them, sometime soon.
Talk soon, have a great time, ciao!

Where Am I?

Here's a little update on how I'm going with comics and other stuff.
I'm not going as steady as I wished I was, after finishing Dream Fortress I wanted to take just a little breath, to recollect energy and make some considerations, review some flaws and try not to remake them in the new comic I'm working on.
Then I wanted to start some new illustrations as well, so I sketched some things more than I did while coloring Dream Fortress.
I'm planning to have 3 comics completed before mid-September, along with at least 4 new illustrations, it's gotta be hard so I'm trying to make the whole comic-making process a little faster.
The new comic is storyboarded and most of the pages are already drafted and ready to be developed; I hope I'll be done with full b/w pages early next week, wishing to have the full comic done by mid-August.
Here's a picture of how first page is coming along, I already tried some shortcuts for coloring on this page, I just gotta see it done to see if they really work as I hope they do, but until now they seem to work pretty well.

That's it, I'm back drawing now, I've got a splitting headache and other things on my mind. So it's like working in a trance, a strange one.
I'll be back next week for a couple of post of books, or artists, talk soon!

Update

Hello, I'm almost done with drawing the comic, I sat at the drawing desk days and nights and I think it's going to be complete these days, next week I'm starting to colour it and post every page once it is done.
In the meantime I'm also going to start some new illustrations and draft out something for upcoming new comics, I'm going to have at least four comics ready before September, plus new illustrations and stuff.
Stay tuned, more updates soon, ciao!

What's That?

Could it be the first page of the infamous comic I've been talking about for a while?

 

You betcha! I'm working on page two today; it's gonna be a six-pages story, I think I'm going to start coloring the first one tomorrow. I'm really excited about how it's coming along. Updates soon, ciao!

Alive!

I'm back at last! I've been really busy during past weeks so I had little time to draw or update anywhere.

In the last couple of days I finally got back at the drawing desk; the illustration I'm working on will be an occasion to recover some things from older works; I'm planning on introducing some lettering in it to express the sounds, something like a one panel comic.

The figures are 99% complete, I gotta start making the background and refine some things here and there.

Here's a small peek at it:

Other things are in the works, new posts coming soon! Ciao!

What's Up

Hello, it's quite some time since my last post.
I got my mind on other things, both good and bad so I just couldn't draw as much as I wished.
Whenever the heat starts rising it sucks away all my energies so I guess I just gotta get used to it and start drawing again at full speed.
I started a new illustration and I'm adjusting the comic's drafts. I'll definitely show you someting next week.
Ciao!

Dragon Rider

The new illustration is done and posted on my Flickr!
I'm going to start the comic in the following days, hooray!

Ciao!

In Color

Found some time to start coloring the drawing, yay!

 

Guess it's time to buy a new camera, this one has one foot in the grave.

Next One

Hey, not much time to draw lately.

I'm feeling a little frustrated about it; I got lots of ideas to draw but time to do it just flies away; hope it'll be more in the next weeks.

Anyway, I got some pictures of the drawing I'm working on now.

 

I think this one is going to be crazy.

The gardener one was cool to draw but it wasn't much psychedelic so I have mixed feelings about it, hope this one gets to be a stunner.

Talk soon, ciao!

It's Done!

Icadinque's illustration is ready, go check it!
More posts soon, I'm quite busy right now!

Ciao!

Gardening

So, good weather is finally back, to celebrate its arrival I drew a lush forest around Zeta Zero Zap's Royal Gardener.

I think the drawing may be ready around tomorrow or wednesday; I got some things to do before focusing on it exclusively.

Here is how it looks so far, my camera makes some color look overly fluorescent, kind of like it.

 

Have a great time, ciao!
